Yeast Free?!


Question:

Yeast Free?

I have recently found out that asthma can be linked to Yeast in the diet. Is this true and has anyone out there tried this. And how do I find good recipes for a yeast free diet. Someone please help!!


Answers:
I have asthma and find that Red Wine can be a trigger, as can beer (very rarely). I don't think it is the yeast, though.

I eat a helluva lot of Marmite and it has never once set off my asthma.

i am not sure but i can suggest to reading labels very carefully before purchasing something to eat and you can always look on line there are some really easy reciepes for any diet or allergy

here are a few sites......open one of these and you'll get lots more!....

Asthma can also be linked to dairy consumption. This is particularly so in African Americans partially due to their high rates of lactose intolerance.

A *very* small number of asthmatics have shown a slight tendency to be allergic to *some* strains of yeast (torula yeast seems to be most commonly indicated). Assuming that you suffer from asthma the only way to know if you are sensitive to some yeast strains would be to have an allergist test you.

BTW; my catalog of commercially available yeast has over 150 different strains in 14 different categories!

I think that is bunk in other words not true but I really don't know on that! I have asthma but eat very little yeast items. You can borrow a book from your local library on Yeast Free Diets or Go to Your local book store and buy
such a book! Do U know about bannock and bannock bread, bannock pancakes? bannock biscuits? These don't use yeast. Perogies don't have yeast in them.
